On another thread, I thought I had Lucky Break already, but I found when checking myself out that I do not. I had confused it with another spell.

Im at the point in my 100 Culti where I need to do 3 more Warsong bosses (which never seem to come up for a BH) to unlock the next OHT map where I need to kill 30 more mobs to complete that quest.

This leads to questions.

Ive seen some people spamming for players for Full Warsong. Idk why this suddenly is, unless some people have suddenly desided they want to get their lvl 100 Culti done.

The trend for these squads is to be able to solo a Pavillion.

Questions:

1. Is it necessary to do Full Warsong this way, or is this just a new trend?

2. If it is necessary, what is the best Pavillion for a Mystic to attempt to solo?

Someone in my faction suggested I try Fire while squaded. Needless to say given current attitudes in the game, I am skeptical any squad would be willing to take along someone who doesnt know if they can solo a Pavillion because they have never tried before. In fact, of those spamming for squad members, they say "must be able to solo a Pavillion".

Also, I have had negative experiences soloing what I percieve to be Fire-based creatures in the past, like Wyvern in 51 or 59.

3. Is it possible to attempt to solo a Pavillion without being squaded? Like pay 10 mirages and pick a Pavillion?

Warsong is where the molds for the new stage 3 rank 9 and nirvana gear drop from. (Lunar too, but Warsong drops the wep molds) This is why you see more people doing full warsong runs. The only way to get the final boss that drops the wep molds, is to defend all 5 paths.

For a mystic w/ no prior warsong experience, I'd actually recommend defending the metal path. The mobs in both metal and fire deal elemental damage, so arcane classes are more suited for defending these paths. Fire takes a little longer to kill though. However, since you have a pet, earth/wood might work for you too.

The only way to know, is to try, so next time you do a metal bh, pop into one of the paths and give defending it a go. You don't lose experience if you die in warsong, and it's a good way to test it out before you get in a squad that starts qq'ing if you can't handle the path you're on.

On a side note, I never heard of needing warsong bosses for opening OHT maps. I've finished full culti, and got the final OHT map/belt on two toons, and never had to do a warsong boss to do it.

Posting a screenie will take forever, since I need to upload the image, etc. then post its URL. I logged in to check.

Road to Tao gave me 3 sets of OHT mobs to kill. I have 30 Icewing Chiefs left, which I need to do Pestilence Destroyer, Obscure Reaper & Shadowskull Lich to get to them. I believe there was a 4th, which I did with a BH already.

If I can drop that and reroll it, I will. I had to do the 3 TT bosses to get to this point.
